1 All the pigs were in full agreement on this point, even Snowball and Napoleon.
2 All the animals nodded in complete agreement, and the cleverer ones at once began to learn the Commandments by heart.
3 Throughout the whole period of his seeming friendship with Pilkington, Napoleon had really been in secret agreement with Frederick.
4 These two disliked each other so much that it was difficult for them to come to any agreement, even in defence of their own interests.
5 But it was noticed that these two were never in agreement: whatever suggestion either of them made, the other could be counted on to oppose it.
6 The animals listened first to Napoleon, then to Snowball, and could not make up their minds which was right; indeed, they always found themselves in agreement with the one who was speaking at the moment.
7 It was noticed that whenever he seemed on the point of coming to an agreement with Frederick, Snowball was declared to be in hiding at Foxwood, while, when he inclined toward Pilkington, Snowball was said to be at Pinchfield.
8 At about the same time it was given out that Napoleon had arranged to sell the pile of timber to Mr. Pilkington; he was also going to enter into a regular agreement for the exchange of certain products between Animal Farm and Foxwood.
9 Without any further prompting they confessed that they had been secretly in touch with Snowball ever since his expulsion, that they had collaborated with him in destroying the windmill, and that they had entered into an agreement with him to hand over Animal Farm to Mr. Frederick.
10 Except through Whymper, there was as yet no contact between Animal Farm and the outside world, but there were constant rumours that Napoleon was about to enter into a definite business agreement either with Mr. Pilkington of Foxwood or with Mr. Frederick of Pinchfield--but never, it was noticed, with both simultaneously.
